August 3 - Coast Guard Birthday

The Coast Guard is celebrating its birthday this coming Friday, August 3, with a picnic at Gab Gab Beach on Naval Station, and all auxiliarists and our families are invited. The grilling will begin at 1030 with food ready to be consumed about 1200 noon-ish. Bring a local dish to share if you wish, but it’s not necessary. Swimming is encouraged so bring a bathing suit, snorkel, fins, floats, and towels to dry off. Gab-Gab has a place to change into dry clothes so no need to worry about getting car seats wet. If you can make it, please come and enjoy the celebration.

July 29 - Boat Crew Training

We will be getting underway on an on-water patrol on Sunday, July 29 at 0800 from Sumay Marina on Naval Station. Anyone interested in becoming boat crew qualified is welcome to join us but space is limited so first come, first served. Call MT Sajnovsky at 789-5438 or e-mail him at bcsaj@guam.net.  Uniform will be dark blue t—shirt with “USCG Auxiliary” in ½ inch white lettering on left breast, dark blue shorts with cargo pockets with black web belt with simple silver buckle, white crew length socks (not ankle socks) with dark colored boat shoes or sneakers (brown, black, blue) and an AUX Ball Cap.

Happy 79th Birthday Coast Guard Auxiliary!

The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary celebrated 79 years of continuous service to the U.S. Coast Guard on June 23, 2018.  The USCGAUX serves as a force multiplier to the U.S. Coast Guard, working alongside active duty and reservists performing similar tasks and has units throughout the nation.  As uniformed civilian volunteers, over 28,000 members volunteer their time, talents, and efforts.

Happy 74th Liberation Day, Guam!

This Saturday marks Guam's 74th Liberation Day! The island's annual liberation parade on July 21 is traditionally packed with crowds to celebrate Guam's freedom from Japan's cruel occupation. As part of our patriotism, we continue to celebrate and thank those who have served or are currently serving in the Armed Forces to fight for the freedom that we enjoy today!
